Von Koenigseggâs bald pate and his mellifluous, lightly accented English, not to mention his headquarters on a remote, decommissioned military base, bring to mind a Bond villain. And the association is apt, for while von Koenigseggâs ambitions may not be malevolent, heâs nevertheless bent on world domination, at least in the realm of seven-figure supercars. The automobile industry is littered with the skeletons of failed startups driven by a single manâs all-consuming vision.
Koenigsegg also promised that when the One:1 finally hits the market, it will be the fastest supercar in the world. It will be capable of hitting a top speed of about 450 km/h (279.6 mph), plus it will break the records for the 0-to-200 km/h (124 mph), the 0-to-300 km/h (186 mph) and even 0-400 km/h (248 mph).
